Flower Market Reports 



f Continued frotn pa^e t>/j^) 



There is a decided 

 NEW YORK change tor the better 



in the market this 

 week. There is not that great surplus 

 of almost everything that has had to 

 be recorded of late, and although 

 prices have not much advanced our 

 wholesale men seem to be altogether 

 on better terms with themselves. 

 Trade in the retail stores is now brisk 

 owing no doubt to the return from the 

 country and abroad of many New 

 Yorkers. 



The past week 



PHILADELPHIA has been a fairly 



satisfactory one 



taking into consideration the time of 



the year. 



Beauties not very plentiful and sell- 

 ing up in good shape; prices holding 

 firm. Richmonds more plentiful, qual- 

 ity good. Killarneys very plentiful 

 and quality of some is very good while 

 there is also some poor stock coming 

 in. The color the last few days has 

 been off quite a little, the Mary lauds 

 heing much better color than the Pink 

 Killarneys. White Killarneys are very

good particularly the Double Vvhlte, 

 which have been showing up as fine as 

 at any time so far this season. Tatt is 

 still selling well, probably better than 

 any other one rose coming to the Phil- 

 adelphia market. The yellows, parfic- 

 ularly Sunburst, are selling in good 

 shape. Sunburst is a very promising 

 rose and is meeting with universal f.a- 

 vor with the retailers, although the 

 others, Mrs. Aaron Ward and Hilling- 

 don are holding their own and selling 

 well. Irish Fire Flame as a novelty is 

 a decided success. 



Carnations are moving in fair shape 

 prices low, quality probably not as 

 good as it should be at this time of 

 the year on account of the warm 

 weather which we have had. Stems 

 on a good many varieties are quite 

 short, in fact, shorter than they should 

 be, the Wards and Pink Delight beini 

 about the only gocd long stemmed 

 ones. 



Gardenias are in much shorter sup- 



ply than they were a couple of weeks 

 ago. Lily of the valley is still plenti- 

 ful but n oving well. 



Cattleyas are very plentiful and 

 prices low although at times there are
